Knife Attack Near Acropolis in Athens | Sheffield News

Two American tourists were stabbed near the Acropolis in Athens this morning, with one suffering a serious leg wound and the other a hand injury — the man reportedly shielding his companion. Police arrested a suspect in his 50s, still holding the weapon, believed to have mental health issues. The attack occurred as victims waited to enter the iconic site, drawing global attention amid rising security concerns. The British Foreign Office has updated its travel advice, warning of potential indiscriminate terrorist attacks — including recent incidents involving explosives and automatic weapons — though it still advises against travel restrictions.
